Police men tried to intimidate a magistrate investigating the deaths

Superstar-politician Rajinikanth today joined the growing calls for punishing policemen blamed for the deaths in custody of a man and his son arrested for keeping their shop open longer than allowed during the coronavirus lockdown.

“They should not be spared,” Rajinikanth said, saying he was “shocked” that the policemen tried to intimidate a magistrate investigating the deaths.

“When everyone has condemned the torture and brutal killing of Jeyaraj and Beniks, I am shocked to see the conduct of a few policemen before the magistrate,” Rajinikanth said.

“The police reacted this way even after the whole humanity condemned the brutal and beastly killing of the father and son. All those involved in this case should be punished.”

The Madras High Court yesterday said policemen involved in the deaths could be charged with murder based on the post mortem report and ordered security for a constable who has recorded a statement as a witness to Jeyaraj and Beniks being beaten all night at the police station in Santhankulam with lathis .

Jeyaraj, 59, and his son Beniks, 31, were arrested on June 19 for keeping their mobile phone shop open 15 minutes beyond curfew in the coronavirus lockdown. After Jeyaraj was taken away by the police, his son, who reached the police station, was also arrested.

The two were allegedly beaten and tortured and suffered wounds so severe that they died on June 22, within hours of each other.

The constable who is a witness told the magistrate that both father and son were beaten with sticks through the night, so much that the sticks and tables in the vicinity were blood-stained.

Several celebrities, activists and politicians have expressed outrage at the custody deaths and have demanded tough action against the policemen involved

Jameela Jamil: Lockdown made me less ignorant

Actress Jameela Jamil feels the COVID-19 lockdown has helped her become a less ignorant person.

In an interview with Grazia magazine, Jameela spoke about how the ongoing pandemic changed her perspective about life, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

“For the last couple of years, I’ve been so busy I haven’t had time to learn and I think that contributed to a lot of the mistakes I’ve made. This has given me space to really investigate, learn, read, and educate myself. I was so busy (before), I didn’t have time to really know what I was talking about all the time and I feel very grateful for this pause in being able to, hopefully, become a less problematic, less ignorant person,” Jameela said.

She added: “I think I’ll come out of this a more calm, thoughtful, and careful person, more aware of the damage of having a 280-character Twitter word count. Now I have the podcast and YouTube channel. I don’t have to compact all of my thoughts and that’s amazing. Now I have time and space for nuance and context.”

Mary J. Blige enters wine business

Actress Mary J. Blige has entered the liquor business with the launch of an exclusive collection of limited-edition wines.

The actress has partnered with Fantinel Winery to launch Sun Goddess Wines, reports hollywoodreporter.com. The edition is named Sun Goddess as a nod to Blige’s childhood memories with her mother and a love for “the warmth and energy of the sun”.

“A dear friend introduced me to Marco Fantinel referring to him as the producer of the best pinot grigio in the world. After walking through the vineyards and tasting with the Fantinel family, I felt extremely connected to the place, and more importantly, the people,” Blige said.

“At that moment, I felt the same magical energy I have long tried to capture from the sun and knew this was an incredible opportunity to partner with someone who shared that passion and together we could try to create something that evoked that feeling,” she added

Anushka Sharma: I’ve tried to have a distinct voice in cinema

Actress-producer Anushka Sharma says she has tried to be a disruptive storyteller with the projects she has bankrolled and added that in all her career she has tried to have a distinct voice in cinema.

“We have tried to be disruptive storytellers who would give audiences something new that they would have never seen before. It comes organically to both (brother and production house partner) Karnesh and me and I’m glad people are loving our edgy attempts aimed at breaking the content clutter in India,” Anushka said.

The actress, who is currently riding on the positive response to her latest projects “Pataal Lok” and “Bulbul”, says the content she is producing is an extension of the kind of scripts she would make.

“All my career, I have tried to have a distinct voice in cinema through my choice of films and roles and the content I am producing with Karnesh at Clean Slate Filmz is only an extension to the kind of script choices I would make otherwise. We were sure that our production house would need to stand apart with projects that audiences would not find any earlier reference point.”

She added: “We take pride in the content that we have produced so far because we have backed originality of ideas and we want to keep it this way. It’s the only way we know we could operate.”

Anushka’s brother Karnesh says he is thankful to the audiences for loving their work.

“Anushka, I and the entire team of ‘Bulbul’ and ‘Pataal Lok’ are delighted with the audience’s reactions to our projects. We always believed in the content we were creating to be different so it gives us a huge sense of accomplishment to see the feeling resonating with audiences too,” he added.

Anya Singh: Being a budding actor, uncertainty scares me

Budding actress Anya Singh, who appeared as the female lead in the web series titled “Never Kiss Your Best Friend”, says the uncertain time post-COVID-19 makes her nervous, but she is being positive.

“Establishing myself in any field is a tough task and of course it will be tougher for new actors like us. I am scared of the uncertainty that we have to go through. We know that things will be normal, but the question is when. It is actually such a unique situation that the more we think, the more we get into a dark zone. So I am trying to spend a day with productivity. If we are productive, we feel positive. I am taking master classes and working on my craft. I am reading more because it helps to keep my mind positive. I really do not want to feel the uncertain, unstable situation in my mind,” Anya told IANS.

The actress made her Bollywood debut in Habib Faisal’s directorial “Qaidi Band” in 2017. She has also appeared in the Telugu film “Ninu Veedani Needanu Nene”.

The ZEE5 show “Never Kiss Your Best Friend” has given her a positive response from the audience and Anya sees digital entertainment as a space for constant opportunity.

“I also sense that all OTT platforms will show interest to make a lot more original content, once the full-fledged shooting starts. We have been shifting to home entertainment for a while. Even when normalcy returns, initially we will only prefer to go out for essential work and not for entertainment to the cinema halls. But content making will continue so projects will be lined up for digital entertainment,” she reasoned.

Shilpa Shetty Kundra: This time with my son and newborn daughter is so precious

Bollywood actress and entrepreneur Shilpa Shetty Kundra finds the current time of staying home precious as she can spend many more moments with her son Viaan and her newborn daughter Samisha, whom she welcomed via surrogacy in February.

“I couldn’t have timed it better. It’s God’s grace, it worked perfectly in my scheme of things. This time is so precious with my son and with my newborn. I can only be thankful and have the utmost gratitude for the way things have panned out,” Shilpa told IANS.

However, she shared that despite being caught up with work she ensures that she makes time for her family.

“Despite being busy, I would still make time for family, but not like this. I just feel that it’s really what I wanted so badly and I feel in a way I manifested it,” she said.

What has this pandemic taught Shilpa? “The universe knows how to reset, to teach us patience and value for what we have. Hope we learn from this experience and come out stronger,” she told IANS.

On the film front, Shilpa is all set to make her comeback as an actress with roles in the upcoming films, “Nikamma” and “Hungama 2”.
